    This op resizes a batch of images.
    The input must be a 3-D Tensor of the shape (num_batches, channels, in_w)
    or 4-D (num_batches, channels, in_h, in_w), or a 5-D Tensor of the shape
    (num_batches, channels, in_d, in_h, in_w) or (num_batches, in_d, in_h, in_w, channels),
    Where in_w is width of the input tensor, in_h is the height of the input tensor,
    in_d is the depth of the intput tensor.
    and the resizing only applies on the three dimensions(depth, height and width).

    Supporting resample methods:
        'linear' : Linear interpolation
        'bilinear' : Bilinear interpolation
        'trilinear' : Trilinear interpolation
        'nearest' : Nearest neighbor interpolation
        'bicubic' : Bicubic interpolation
        'area': Area interpolation

    Linear interpolation is the method of using a line connecting two known quantities 
    to determine the value of an unknown quantity between the two known quantities. 
    
    Nearest neighbor interpolation is to perform nearest neighbor interpolation
    in both the 3rd dimension(in height direction) and the 4th dimension(in width
    direction) on input tensor.

    Bilinear interpolation is an extension of linear interpolation for
    interpolating functions of two variables (e.g. H-direction and
    W-direction in this op) on a rectilinear 2D grid. The key idea is
    to perform linear interpolation first in one direction, and then
    again in the other direction.

    Trilinear interpolation is an extension of linear interpolation for
    interpolating functions of three variables (e.g. D-direction,
    H-direction and W-direction in this op) on a rectilinear 3D grid.
    The linear interpolation is performed on three directions.
    align_corners and align_mode are optional parameters,the calculation method
    of interpolation can be selected by them.

    Bicubic interpolation is an extension of cubic interpolation for interpolating
    data points on a two-dimensional regular grid. The interpolated surface is
    smoother than corresponding surfaces obtained by bilinear interpolation or
    nearest-neighbor interpolation.

    Area interpolation is to perform area interpolation
    in both the 3rd dimension(in height direction) , the 4th dimension(in width
    direction) and the 5th dimension(in depth direction) on input tensor. Set to 
    area will directly call `paddle.nn.functional.adaptive_avg_pool1d` or 
    `paddle.nn.functional.adaptive_avg_pool2d` or `paddle.nn.functional.adaptive_avg_pool3d`.

    This op resizes a batch of images.

    The input must be a 3-D Tensor of the shape (num_batches, channels, in_w)
    or 4-D (num_batches, channels, in_h, in_w), or a 5-D Tensor of the shape
    (num_batches, channels, in_d, in_h, in_w) or (num_batches, in_d, in_h, in_w, channels),
    Where in_w is width of the input tensor, in_h is the height of the input tensor,
    in_d is the depth of the intput tensor.
    and the resizing only applies on the three dimensions(depth, height and width).

    Supporting resample methods:
        'linear' : Linear interpolation
        'bilinear' : Bilinear interpolation
        'trilinear' : Trilinear interpolation
        'nearest' : Nearest neighbor interpolation
        'bicubic' : Bicubic interpolation
    Linear interpolation is the method of using a line connecting two known quantities 
    to determine the value of an unknown quantity between the two known quantities. 
    
    Nearest neighbor interpolation is to perform nearest neighbor interpolation
    in both the 3rd dimension(in height direction) and the 4th dimension(in width
    direction) on input tensor.
    Bilinear interpolation is an extension of linear interpolation for
    interpolating functions of two variables (e.g. H-direction and
    W-direction in this op) on a rectilinear 2D grid. The key idea is
    to perform linear interpolation first in one direction, and then
    again in the other direction.
    
    Bicubic interpolation is an extension of cubic interpolation for interpolating
    data points on a two-dimensional regular grid. The interpolated surface is
    smoother than corresponding surfaces obtained by bilinear interpolation or
    nearest-neighbor interpolation.

    Trilinear interpolation is an extension of linear interpolation for
    interpolating functions of three variables (e.g. D-direction,
    H-direction and W-direction in this op) on a rectilinear 3D grid.

    The linear interpolation is performed on three directions.
    align_corners and align_mode are optional parameters,the calculation method
    of interpolation can be selected by them.

    Area interpolation is to perform area interpolation
    in both the 3rd dimension(in height direction) , the 4th dimension(in width
    direction) and the 5th dimension(in depth direction) on input tensor. Set to
    area will directly call `paddle.nn.functional.adaptive_avg_pool1d` or
    `paddle.nn.functional.adaptive_avg_pool2d` or `paddle.nn.functional.adaptive_avg_pool3d`.

    Returns:

    Examples:
        We use ``p=0.5`` in the following description for simplicity.

        1. When ``axis=None`` , this is commonly used dropout, which dropout each element of x randomly.

        ..  code-block:: text

            Let's see a simple case when x is a 2d tensor with shape 2*3:
            [[1 2 3]
             [4 5 6]]
            we generate mask with the same shape as x, which is 2*3. The value of mask is
            sampled from a Bernoulli distribution randomly. For example, we may get such mask:
            [[0 1 0]
             [1 0 1]]
            So the output is obtained from elementwise multiply of x and mask:
            [[0 2 0]
             [4 0 6]]
            Using default setting, i.e. ``mode='upscale_in_train'`` ,
            if in training phase, the final upscale output is:
            [[0 4 0 ]
             [8 0 12]]
            if in test phase, the output is the same as input:
            [[1 2 3]
             [4 5 6]]
            we can also set ``mode='downscale_in_infer'`` , then
            if in training phase, the final output is:
            [[0 2 0]
             [4 0 6]]
            if in test phase, the scale output is:
            [[0.5 1.  1.5]
             [2.  2.5 3. ]]



        2. When ``axis!=None`` , this is useful for dropping whole channels from an image or sequence.

        ..  code-block:: text

            Let's see the simple case when x is a 2d tensor with shape 2*3 again:
            [[1 2 3]
             [4 5 6]]
            (1) If ``axis=0`` , this means the dropout is only performed in axis `0` .
                we generate mask with the shape 2*1. Only in axis `0` the value is randomly selected.
                For example, we may get such mask:
                [[1]
                 [0]]
                The output is obtained from elementwise multiply of x and mask. Doing that the mask will be
                broadcast from 2*1 to 2*3:
                [[1 1 1]
                 [0 0 0]]
                and the result after elementwise multiply is:
                [[1 2 3]
                 [0 0 0]]
                then we can do upscale or downscale according to the setting of other arguments.
            (2) If ``axis=1`` , this means the dropout is only performed in axis `1` .
                we generate mask with the shape 1*3. Only in axis `1` the value is randomly selected.
                For example, we may get such mask:
                [[1 0 1]]
                Doing elementwise multiply the mask will be broadcast from 1*3 to 2*3:
                [[1 0 1]
                 [1 0 1]]
                and the result after elementwise multiply is:
                [[1 0 3]
                 [4 0 6]]
            (3) What about ``axis=[0, 1]`` ? This means the dropout is performed in all axes of x,
                which is the same case as default setting ``axis=None`` .
            (4) You may note that logically `axis=None` means the dropout is performed in none axis of x,
                We generate mask with the shape 1*1. Whole input is randomly selected or dropped.
                For example, we may get such mask:
                [[0]]
                Doing elementwise multiply the mask will be broadcast from 1*1 to 2*3:
                [[0 0 0]
                 [0 0 0]]
                and the result after elementwise multiply is:
                [[0 0 0]
                 [0 0 0]]
                Actually this is not what we want because all elements may set to zero~

        When x is a 4d tensor with shape `NCHW`, we can set ``axis=[0,1]`` and the dropout will be performed in channel `N` and `C`, `H` and `W` is tied, i.e. paddle.nn.dropout(x, p, axis=[0,1]) . Please refer to ``paddle.nn.functional.dropout2d`` for more details.
        Similarly, when x is a 5d tensor with shape `NCDHW`, we can set ``axis=[0,1]`` to perform dropout3d. Please refer to ``paddle.nn.functional.dropout3d`` for more details.

    """
    Pad tensor according to 'pad' and 'mode'.
    If mode is 'constant' and length of pad is twice as length of x dimension,
    then the padding will be started from the first dimension and moved back onto x
    according to 'pad' and 'value'.
    If mode is 'reflect', pad[0] and pad[1] must be no greater
    than width-1. The height and depth dimension has the same condition.

    Parameters:
        x (Tensor): The input tensor with data type float32/double/int32/int64_t.
        pad (Tensor | List[int] | Tuple[int]): The padding size with data type int.
            If mode is 'constant' and length of pad is twice as length of x dimension, then x will 
            be padded from the first  dimension to the last dimension.
            Else: 1. If input dimension is 3, then the pad has the form (pad_left,
            pad_right). 2. If the input dimension is 4, then the pad has the form (pad_left, pad_right, 
            pad_top, pad_bottom). 3. If the input dimension is 5, then the pad has the form 
            (pad_left, pad_right, pad_top, pad_bottom, pad_front, pad_back).
        mode (str): Four modes: 'constant' (default), 'reflect', 'replicate', 'circular'.
            When in 'constant' mode, this op uses a constant value to pad the input tensor.
            When in 'reflect' mode, uses reflection of the input boundaries to pad the input tensor.
            When in 'replicate' mode, uses input boundaries to pad the input tensor.
            When in 'circular' mode, uses circular input to pad the input tensor.
            Default is 'constant'
        value (float32): The value to fill the padded areas in 'constant' mode . Default is 0.0
        data_format (str): An string from: "NCL", "NLC", NHWC", "NCHW", "NCDHW", "NDHWC". Specify the data format of
           the input data.
           Default is  "NCHW"
        name (str, optional) : The default value is None.  Normally there is no need for
            user to set this property.  For more information, please refer to :ref:`api_guide_Name`.
                    
    Returns: a Tensor padded according to pad and mode and data type is same as input.

    where :math:`W` is the weight and :math:`b` is the bias.

    If the weight is a 2-D tensor of shape :math:`[in\_features, out\_features]` ,
    input should be a multi-dimensional tensor of shape
    :math:`[batch\_size, *, in\_features]` , where :math:`*` means any number of

    If :math:`bias` is not None, the bias should be a 1-D tensor of shape
    :math:`[out\_features]` and will be added to the output.

    Parameters:
        x (Tensor): Input tensor. The data type should be float16, float32 or float64.
        weight (Tensor): Weight tensor. The data type should be float16, float32 or float64.
        bias (Tensor, optional): Bias tensor. The data type should be float16, float32 or float64.
                                 If it is set to None, no bias will be added to the output units.

def label_smooth(label, prior_dist=None, epsilon=0.1, name=None):
    r"""
    Label smoothing is a mechanism to regularize the classifier layer and is called
    label-smoothing regularization (LSR).

    Label smoothing is proposed to encourage the model to be less confident,
    since optimizing the log-likelihood of the correct label directly may
    cause overfitting and reduce the ability of the model to adapt. Label
    smoothing replaces the ground-truth label :math:`y` with the weighted sum
    of itself and some fixed distribution :math:`\mu`. For class :math:`k`,
    i.e.

    .. math::

        \\tilde{y_k} = (1 - \epsilon) * y_k + \epsilon * \mu_k,

    where :math:`1 - \epsilon` and :math:`\epsilon` are the weights
    respectively, and :math:`\\tilde{y}_k` is the smoothed label. Usually
    uniform distribution is used for :math:`\mu`.

    See more details about label smoothing in https://arxiv.org/abs/1512.00567.

    Parameters:
        label(Tensor): The input variable containing the label data. The
                        label data should use one-hot representation. It's
                        a multidimensional tensor with a shape of
                        :math:`[N_1, ..., Depth]`, where Depth is class number. The dtype can be "float32" and "float64".
        prior_dist(Tensor, optional): The prior distribution to be used to smooth
                        labels. If not provided, an uniform distribution
                        is used. It's a multidimensional tensor with a shape of
                        :math:`[1, class\_num]` . The default value is None.
        epsilon(float, optional): The weight used to mix up the original ground-truth
                        distribution and the fixed distribution. The default value is
                        0.1.
        name(str, optional): The default value is None. Normally there is no need for user
                        to set this property. For more information, please refer to

def class_center_sample(label, num_classes, num_samples, group=None):
    """
    Class center sample method is proposed from the paper PartialFC that only sample a subset of the class centers.
    The process of sampling subset class centers is straightforward: 

    1. First select the positive class centers;
    2. Then randomly sample negative class centers.

    Specifically, given a label tensor, shape [batch_size], select all the positive class centers and randomly 
    sample negative class centers, then remap the input label tensor using the sampled class centers.

    For more information, Partial FC: Training 10 Million Identities on a Single Machine
    arxiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.05222
    
    .. hint::
        If the number of the positive class centers is greater than the input num_samples, it keeps all the positive 
        class centers and the shape of sampled_class_center will be [num_positive_class_centers].

        The API supports CPU, single GPU and multi GPU.

        For data parallel mode, set ``group=False``.

        For model parallel mode, set ``group=None`` or the group instance return by paddle.distributed.new_group.

    Args:
        label (Tensor): 1-D tensor with shape [N], each label in [0, num_classes)
        num_classes (int): A positive integer to specify the number of classes at local rank.
            Note that num_classes of each GPU can be different.
        num_samples (int): A positive integer to specify the number of class center to sample.
        group (Group, optional): The group instance return by paddle.distributed.new_group 
            or ``None`` for global default group or ``False`` for data parallel (do not communication cross ranks).
            Default is ``None``.

    Returns:
